Nova Minimal Fountain Pen: Just a Pen, No Frills

Most of the time if a pen gets featured in these pages it’s because it boasts some unusual technological gimmick, but maybe you’re frustrated with pens that tell the time or filter contaminants out of craft beers or whatever, so for you there’s the Nova Minimal Fountain Pen.

True to its descriptive name, the Nova Minimal Fountain Pen is pared down to the bare essentials of what a pen is and what it can do, without even the usual built-in accessories associated with pens – no clip, no click, no visible branding of any kind. The result is like the solid steel crowbar of the pen world, dependable and reliable without any extra nonsense. I’m sick of the nonsense!

If you agree, you’ll probably want to take a look at the Nova Minimal Fountain Pen’s listing on Kickstarter right here, where pre-orders start at about $40 and shipments begin early next year.
